My 13 year old is at home with my mother in law and I go between work in Africa and here in Memphis. Every weekend we go home and try to enjoy every minute with Hunter. He will be 15 this month. All he wants to do is fish when we are home lol. He is a gret kid and with God's grace we will get through this. He finishes radiation on May 14th and then it's just a wait and see. Every three months we will have to come back here for MRI's for the next 2 years then every 6 months for the next 5 years then once a year for the rest of his life. It'll be like he is living with a time bomb in his head.

But there is a good side. They found it early and we were able to get into St Jude's. This place and he people here are Amazing.

God Bless your family!!! I know that is a hard thing to go through with it being a child. Pray for the best for your family also
